Poets

Poets have a feel for love That others don't seem to possess Our love seems deeper, much more intense More emotionally charged I guess Could be just a poet talking Perhaps a bit bias what I'm saying Never been accused of playing by the rules I'm a “spade is a spade” type being Now and then I bend my rules Break out of my mould so to speak But this does appear so very obvious to me When us guys are at our peak As a poet I have an inside track On the thinking process of us guys We talk about love with an inner perspective We know about lows and highs Poets have a feel for love We're all quite unique in that way Most poets can see love wherever they look Filled with sweet love every day © Jack Ellison 2013

Precise description of poets, Jack. Have never read one vaunting pain and human suffering. Nay, suffering has since time immemorial a leitmotif for Poets who consistently preach love between enemies, love between races, love between brothers and sisters and love between lovers....Great write, Jack.

Dragon sees love for him every where... Grandpa Trolls' still a looking for it... I see love of family and Hubby makes my heart go pitty pat... He gave me a cute little gutter frog... Of course I then said EEEKKK! and ran... But then again... so did the gutter frog when he saw me... No wonder the frogs around here are so Weird... They have a lot to put up with... Gee... And I had thought I'd done sooo well. When I tried to apologize to him... he just climbed a tree, but he was a tree frog... LOL

Dragon thinks he's the bomb in all those things... We don't want to break his bubble... but he's not... We're still looking... There has to be SOME talent some where... LOL...
